#Remove Plants Permanently

A way to remove certain plants entirely would be great, especially if they're between closely-grouped crop fields, since they come back after you delete a farm plot, road, or orchard. It's easier to have a lot of smaller crop fields rather than a few large ones, insofar as it lets me micromanage what's getting planted and where a LOT better when using NPCs to work the fields, but plants popping up between my crops just makes it look like I, a farmer, don't know how to weed. I understand the difference between placed items in the world and procedurally-generated grass and I don't know which category these plants fall under, so I'm not sure how feasible this is, but it would definitely make my fields look neater.

Placing roads between the fields would get rid of the plants.... Unless you want the grass to show up instead of dirt.

Hm. I assumed you couldn't put down roads in gaps that narrow, but I'll give it a try.

Too narrow for roads. Sometimes a bush pops-up close to my fences and part of it goes through even a stone fence. Would be nice to have some tool that sets the area either to grass or dirt at least.

Lol yup I use roads then delete them!

Tragically, these are the ones that come back after you remove the roads, and you can't lay a road and then build a field that overlaps it.

I still think this is an idea worth pursuing. I have tiny toddling children all over my village this summer, wandering amongst the nightshade bushes and henbane that I can't remove (I tried to place fields over them, but they came back), which makes me feel hugely irresponsible even though I know nothing mechanical will befall the toddlers or livestock. Along with poisonous mushrooms in autumn, I feel compelled to gather all dangerous herbs around my village each season. Being able to selectively delete these spawns would make things a lot easier for me. Perhaps the shovel could permanently remove such plants?
